Journey to the West: The Rise of Martial Arts

Chapter 313 Bhikkhu Junior High School
The fight between Ren Qinglian and Dapeng was not insignificant, and Zhu Gangli and Sha Wujing who were hiding in a mountain outside the city could naturally see it clearly, but before the victory was decided, the two of them chose to turn a blind eye and waited. Seeing the demon king's defeat from a distance, he led a group of monkey soldiers to the city.

Thousands of monkey soldiers running wildly made a lot of noise.

Xuanzang hadn't recovered from the shock of Ren Qinglian's repelling the Peng Yao, but he was awakened by the sound of shouting and killing, subconsciously grabbing the monkey's hand, and said in amazement: "Wukong, is that monster still alive?" Helper, you're back again!?"

The monkey snorted coldly, performed a formula, and saw that the noise outside disappeared in an instant.

But in front of Zhu Gangli and Sha Wujing, the mighty group of monkey soldiers turned into a monkey hair dancing in the sky.

Xuanzang was puzzled, so he heard Sha Wujing's voice: "Master, don't be afraid, Wujing is coming!"

"The old pig is coming too!" Zhu Gang's voice came one after another.

Only then did Xuanzang "suddenly" say: "So it was Bajie and Wujing who subdued the monsters outside!"

Monkey's face darkened, and the two good juniors had already broken in.

Ren Qinglian suppressed her laughter, and took the opportunity to change the subject, not mentioning what means and magical powers she used in the battle with the Dapeng Demon King just now.

A group of people braved the cold, stayed in the rain and ate the wind, and continued on the road.After autumn and winter, I finally saw a city again.

Xuanzang saw the large characters engraved on the gate of the city from a distance, and asked the monkey, "Wukong, what is that side?"

The monkey said angrily: "Of course I know when we get to the front, if it's a national capital, we can change Guanwen, if it's an ordinary state or county, just stay overnight!"

Xuanzang froze for a moment, he couldn't figure out what kind of madness this monkey had gone into. Since he left the lion and camel country, he had been in this state of being owed money by others.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Zhu Gangli said cheerfully: "Since there are people, it doesn't matter whether it is a big city or a small city, let's find a place to have a hot meal!"

"Eat and eat, you know how to eat!" Monkey rolled his eyes, "My old grandson sees that this city is not simple, and resentment gathers in the sky above the city, obviously there is grievance..."

Zhu Ganglu smiled and said, "When did the big brother learn astrology?" Then he looked at Ren Qinglian and said, "I said this in front of Layman Ren, don't you think it's a bit of a big knife in front of Guan Gong?"

"Uh," Ren Qinglian, who was studying the changes in devouring space with her eyes closed, couldn't help opening her eyes when she heard this, and smiled wryly, "Don't, the Great Sage is right, the sky above this city is indeed full of resentment, and the evil spirit is very heavy. , I'm afraid there are monsters in the city."

Along the way, he was observing the changes in the engulfing space.Although the inner world of the avatar was constructed by the deity with the help of the dantian world, it has its own unique evolution trajectory after integrating the gluttonous devouring space.However, this evolution is very slow. So far, apart from the fact that the atmosphere devouring the space has become much more peaceful, there is actually no more obvious change.But Ren Qinglian knew that his devouring space already had a part of Buddha Yuan, which could be transformed into a Buddhist world similar to the Buddha Kingdom in the palm of his hand at any time.It's just that he has no intention of establishing a Buddhist kingdom to spread faith. For the time being, he just uses this change to realize the power of the Buddha's essence.

Xuanzang was terrified when he heard the word "monster", subconsciously tightened the reins in his hand, and slowed down his horse's pace, "Do you know what kind of city it is, how can there be monsters to haunt it!"

This monk is actually not stupid, he can hear the jokes of his disciples, and he can vaguely guess that Ren Qinglian has the supernatural power of "foretelling". He just "woke up" again, so he tried to ask.

Ren Qinglian gave Xuanzang a little face, nodded and said: "The three big characters of Bhikkhu Kingdom are written on the tower. As for why there are monsters making troubles, I don't know that!"

But I was thinking in my heart that the old head of the Bhikkhu Kingdom seemed to be the mount of the birthday star. He had a little friendship with the three stars of Fu Lu Shou in Penglai Island back then. He just took this opportunity to try to get the old Taoist to help drive away his body. Bad luck.Although this bad luck has not caused serious consequences so far, there have been many incidents along the way. He even suspected that the fight with Dapeng was related to this bad luck, but his luck was good. , turn danger into good luck!But luck is too ethereal, who knows if he will always be lucky...

Although Xuanzang knew the name of the city, he felt that it would be better not to ask. The news of the monster was not found out, which made him a little worried along the way.

After entering the city, looking at the bustling street, which can even be said to be a scene of rivers and seas, everyone felt a chill everywhere, which seemed to confirm what Ren Qinglian said before.

Xuanzang stretched his body and looked around on the horseback, and soon noticed a scene that was extremely incompatible with the bustling atmosphere.I saw a goose cage placed at the door of every household, covered with a colorful satin curtain, but the wind blew a corner away, allowing Xuanzang to see clearly that the cage was filled with children, so even if the monkey came to check.

After some inspection, the result was shocking. Those cages were filled with boys, some were playing in the cages, some were crying in the cages, some were eating fruit, sleeping, and pedestrians coming and going But they turn a blind eye, listen but don't hear, and no one cares.

Remembering Ren Qinglian's words, the monkey already guessed that this time may have something to do with the monsters in this city, turned his eyes, and landed on an old soldier who was sleeping against the wind under the sunny wall, and went forward to inquire.

The old man was quite shocked when he saw the monkey's face, so he answered every question he had.The monkey soon returned to Xuanzang and told the story in detail: "Three years ago, an old monk brought his 110-year-old daughter to this bhikkhu country. It is the favor of being in the palace, regardless of the day and night, which makes the spirit thin and tired, the body is weak, the diet is limited, and the life is dying. The head of the country, that is, the old Taoist, went to the fairy prescription and said that it needs a thousand and one children's heart and liver , decocting soup and taking medicine, after taking it, they have the power of immortality for thousands of years. The children in these goose cages are all selected and raised in them. Their parents, afraid of the king's law, dare not cry, so they spread rumors, called the city of children... ..."

Xuanzang heard that King Lian Huna was a senseless and foolish king, but Ren Qinglian knew that all this was done on purpose by Bailujing.In the past three years, the king of the bhikkhu kingdom has always been in good health, so good that he can indulge in pleasure day and night.It was only not long ago that he fell ill, and the White Deer Essence suggested using the children's heart and liver as a fairy prescription for medicine.

The choice of time was very coincidental. The King of the Bhikkhu Kingdom was overjoyed and ordered to select 110 children from the people in the capital and put them in goose cages, waiting for tomorrow to kill and refine the medicine. At this time, Xuanzang and others came to the Bhikkhu Kingdom. .

The day was obviously calculated. Before that, the White Deer Spirit did not do any heinous things other than offering a vixen to the king. After that, those boys were saved by monkeys, and the White Deer Spirit Also no real evil.

During the whole process, Bailujing was just performing his duties according to the script arranged by the birthday star and Bodhisattva.The only victim seemed to be that charming white-faced fox that looked like Avalokitesvara.
